About 8 years ago some B&*#@ crashed into my Elco while it was parked. I had the elco from 91 until '02. I had installed my first motor built by me. It was the first BBC I had ever put in it. I got to drive it less than 2 months before it was totaled.
I found this one at a gas station/garage. I bought it for $500. It had a crappy 305/7000r4 combo. It had wood screws holding things together. I was too hard headed to drive it like that after driving my other Elco with a BBC. So I rebuilt the suspension and motor. I swapped my old disc brakes on this one.

This one does have a 12 bolt, so I got something in the deal, but I want my 8 years back.


Thanks Gary!

I have little patience, the guy that did my driveshaft hates me. He was a jerk anyway. The driveshaft does look pretty.
